Intelligent Transport System

My activity is to contribute to prepare the ISO/TC 204/WG 17 Intelligent transport systems document. I led the team that developed the ISO 23795-1:2022 standard. This standard specifies a method for the determination of fuel consumption and resulting CO2 emissions to enable fleet managers to reduce fuel costs and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in a sustainable manner. The fuel consumption determination is achieved by extracting trip data and speed profiles from the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver of a nomadic device (ND). My activities during this fellowship allowed me to revise any relevant patent rights, use cases and any supporting documentation. It also helped start the harmonization with the SAE & other SDOs.

The existing Standardization Landscape, mainly related to the main 5G and T&L standardization organizations consists of:

• 5G Standardization Organizations
  • 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)
  • European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)
  • International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
  • 5G Infrastructure Public Private Partnership (5G-PPP)
• Transport & Logistics Standardization Organizations
  • IEEE P1950.1 STANDARD FOR COMMUNICATIONS ARCHITECTURAL FUNCTIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR SMART CITIES (focusing on smart mobility)
  • ETSI - TECHNICAL COMMITTEE (TC) INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT SYSTEMS (ITS)
  • Digital Container Shipping Association
  • Digital Transport and Logistics Forum
  • International Maritime Organization
  • GS1 Transport & Logistics

Based on the work performed in the VITAL-5G project (https://www.vital5g.eu) the API for the management of network slices on the interface between the VITAL-5G platform and the network slice management system deployed at the various sites can be standardized in 3GPP under SA5 Management, Orchestration and Charging.

My activity aimed to improve prevent injuries and fatalities on roads at ETSI TC ITS. I led the team that prepared  cooperative ITS standards for Vulnerable Road Users (VRU) awareness and protection on the roads, to improve the protection of pedestrian, bicyclist, motorcyclist and animals when travelling on roads. This standard is made of three parts: use cases, architecture and requirements, and VRU awareness service specification. My activities during this fellowship allowed me to revise the three parts of the standard (TS 103 300) to achieve finalization consistency between them. It alslo helped start the harmonization with the collaborative Perception Service standard, which is still ongoing.
